Today we’re cooking Thai. A wok, a lot of veggies, sweet potatoes and, of course, coconut milk.
We have three different coconut milks in our kitchen, two from wholefood shops (which we bought) and one from a discounter (which my mom-in-law bought).
I wanted to check the “best before” date and decide which milk to use and decided to read the ingredients (Zutaten) list instead.
Quite frankly, I was shocked!
The wholefood milks contain coconut and water. Exactly what you expect. (Bio Kokosmilch)
The discounter milk contains coconut extract and a bunch of ingredients I can’t even pronounce.
Next time I’m at a “regular” store (Rewe, Edeka) I’ll check out their Cocosmilk and see what kind of ingredients that contains.
Organic foods might not make you live longer but at least you know that you’re not eating so much chemical crap when buying wholefoods.
